³⁸ whatever prayer or petition
anyone from Your people Israel might have—
each man knowing his own afflictions^[a](A)
and spreading out his hands toward this temple^(B)—

⁶ I spread out my hands to You;
I am like parched land before You.^(A)Selah

¹⁵ When you lift up your hands in prayer,^(A)
I will refuse to look at you;
even if you offer countless prayers,
I will not listen.^(B)
Your hands are covered with blood.^(C)
